okay what’s your opinion on the theory garroth was brain washed in some way in the end of season 1??
and to continue with the garroth at the end of seasons, what’s your opinion on aphmau admitting she wrote garroth out of character to make her own writing decisions seem better?
So, the concept of Garroth being brainwashed is actually a concept that I first explored in the AU where Aphmau blows up, and I'm quite fond of the headcanon. I think it's great for Garroth enjoyers to be able to re-contextualize one of the worst things their baby did that made little to no sense. Garroth constantly being pushed to such extremes by Aph kissing like one other person is just a really dumb and bad way of writing him, and I don't fault anyone who thinks mind control was involved.
Do I think it was what Jess intended? Maybe...? If she did, she did a very bad job of explaining it. During the end of season 1 Garroth is clearly being manipulated by Zane and Lilian, but the show never uses more explicit language than "manipulation". And Zane can manipulate mansplain malewife like nobody's business, but I'm not sure if just manipulation would really be enough. The wording around the whole ordeal is so vague that you can really take it any direction.
As it is in canon, I don't think the intention was for Garroth to be directly mind controlled, otherwise I feel like Jess would have made it explicitly clear at some point. As a coping mechanism/head canon, I totally accept and will probably start incorporating it into my own writing from now on.
For your second question, my opinion is... strange. I think it takes some cojones to admit that you actively fucked up a beloved character to make your own bad writing look better. I respect Jess for admitting it with Garroth. Still waiting for her apology as to what happened with Laurance--
Anyways, I actually have a lot of thoughts on Season 2 Episode 98 "Garroth", because that's the episode Jess admitted that she wrote out of character for Garroth. I mean, it's obvious she was and had been doing that with Garroth and Laurance since she decided that Aarmau was endgame and the rot of their characters started in season 2 if not earlier, but I appreciate her owning up to it this one single time.
This is the episode that she and everywhere else cites as the breaking point for her and Minecraft Diaries, it's the episode that people know she deliberately fucked up. But that episode isn't nearly as bad as what she did to Laurance in S2E95. Don't get me wrong, 98 sucks, it's a bad episode and a bad showing for Garroth overall, but there's still hope for redemption with Garroth by the end of the episode. He ends on not a high note, but a note that can be picked up. There's still a chance Jess can bounce back from this and get 'em better next time (which she actually kind of does because Episode 99 is one of the best Garroth centered episodes in the series).
But there isn't any hope for Laurance. Garroth gets to come back for My Street as a major role and he gets to stay that way. He gets to go to both of the beach seasons, he gets to be in the know on what the Emerald Secret is, he gets his family retconned to be even worse than they currently were for the sake of the story, and he gets to be involved in the ultimate conclusion of that storyline. Laurance doesn't.
After episode 95, he doesn't get to come back. He's there for Season 1 and 3, but there are two beach seasons, not episodes, that Laurance gets completely excluded from, and when Jess decides she wants the plot to kick in, there's nothing. No mention of Laurance and where he is, what he might be doing, how he might be feeling about all of this. No mention of other characters worrying or thinking about him. There's just... nothing.
I think Jess redeemed herself for how badly she wrote Garroth in 98 with episode 99 and his later showings. Even if I don't like My Street, especially after season 2, Garroth is at least there. He's still got plenty of problems with how his character is written, but at least he's there and gets to be a good character sometimes. Laurance just... didn't get to come back from Jess' horrible writing. (unless we're including Void Paradox but my thoughts on that series on a metatextual level are a whole other can of worms)

only thing i know for certain is that if "breaking bad" took place during modern times, jesse would've used his cash to buy a drone and there would've been a sick ass sequence filmed from drone perspective and one episode cold open would've been all scary and sinister and it would end with an ominous shot of the drone laying all crushed and fucked up on the floor to imply harm done to jesse. and it would be really sad

Wanna know why I don't like Peter B.?
Because when Gwen was actively forced into homelessness in front of him, he literally didn't help at all. And then it gets framed on JESS.
Tumblr media
Gwen asks for help. And Peter says this:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Jess asks him to stop talking.
Tumblr media
And from this moment forward, Peter makes no effort whatsoever to help Gwen.
Mind you. This is AFTER Miles' escape. After the whole 'shocked Peter' gif. Peter knows Miguel is willing to get violent.
But that line is his only attempt to help.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Even as he watches Gwen be fully restrained and physically forced into the machine. He stands there and watches.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
He doesn't try to web her. He doesn't try to stop the machine or talk to Miguel. He stands there in silence. Watching Gwen get sent home to a universe he knows she is homeless in.
And the movie just lets him. Despite the fact he's known Gwen longer than anybody in this room.
Instead, Jess is the only mentor at fault. We're told to blame her.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
During this scene we never pan to Peter, standing there literally motionless as Gwen gets dragged away. He's not panicking, or trying to talk Miguel out of it. We're just expected to absolve him of blame.
It's Jess' fault. Jess is her 'failed mentor' - despite the fact that Peter has known Gwen longer, is shown to have a better relationship with her, and we're given no reason as to why he wasn't her mentor to begin with.
Tumblr media
Jess says this, and we're supposed to judge her for it. While Peter said nothing at all. At most he made a joke and then shut up when he was told.
Jess might've believed she couldn't help Gwen - but what was Peter's excuse? Standing there and watching this happen? He doesn't feel the need to do anything, say anything, or even leave the room.
For him, watching this is fine. And Gwen NEVER confronts him about it.
We're not supposed to blame Peter for letting Miles and Gwen down, repeatedly.
Even when Gwen is being physically forced into homelessness in front of him.
We're told to blame the black woman when the white man who has known Gwen longer literally stands beside Jess motionless.
Tumblr media
Had Hobie not left Gwen the watch - We're left to assume that Peter would've just... let her be homeless in her dimension.
He watched her get sent home, said nothing, then went home to his wife and kid to ponder whether or not he was a bad mentor.
Not if Gwen was okay. Or whether he should go check on her????
That's NOT OKAY???!!!! THAT'S TERRIBLE!!!!!!! And this is the man we're supposed to be routing for? This, the dude who shows NO signs he was even gonna go and check on Gwen? The dude who lets child abuse go down in front of him TWICE and he just stands there blinking? That's our Peter Parker?
And I'm supposed to be thrilled to have him on the team??? Despite the fact Gwen had to come TO HIM. NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND???? Gwen doesn't see a problem with that?????
I'm supposed to be happy he's here? Forreal???
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Oh joy. Thank you so much, Humbling Reality Spider-man. We love you.
I hate Peter B. ALL MY HOBIES HATE PETER B. (Not a typo)

it always blows my mind when people are shocked by or even disbelieving of the fact that "breaking bad" is like a genuinely funny show with actual jokes and absurd situations. do they really think the most critically-acclaimed, popular show of all time got that way because its fucking miserable and dour and gritty The Whole Time
